Abstract

Poverty is a powerful context that can affect individuals psychologically and socially, as well as financially. My work aims to introduce a discussion of poverty into the work domain, specifically examining how it can be defined at work, and how it affects work attitudes and behaviors. I present two papers that propose and test a theory of poverty's multifaceted effects on work outcomes (e.g., discretionary behaviors, job attachment, and career development) through a set of mediating mechanisms (e.g., self-efficacy, negative affectivity, and the diversity of social resources).
